With over 15 years of professional cooking experience, Jonathan has been featured on Anthony Bourdain's The Layover, Eat St. and CTV Montreal and in the Montreal Gazette and on local radio. He is also a regular presenter on Breakfast Television Montreal. Tays Spencer was born in Montreal and raised on Eastern European cuisine.

Although her career is freelancing as a graphic and interior designer, she has also fallen into the business of food through Jonathan.

Her most recent and proud accomplishment is getting their little toddler to eat his greens. Culinary expert, food writer and television personality Gail Simmons lives in New York City.
